I suppose the way to do it at this point is to do east Front (or if one prefers Russians, I guess that would be west front) 1943, then 1942, then 1941.  That way each module has the minimum new OOBs.  Get 'em out the door w 80-90% of the stuff available in theater and I'd be plenty OK.  Heck, I'll pre-pay for that right now.  
Then head for sunny N Africa.  Then make new game engine.  Then start back over again w Normandy.  That's my dream for BFC.
Oh, and in between all that they have to make new modules for the modern games.  Dang, they'll be busy.

In this holiday season, let us all remember that we are just grown men (mostly men?) playing w little army men and toy tanks.  No one is right or wrong in which army men they want.

hear hear!  Less minor detail and more big picture stuff.  like Barbarossa, Case Blue, Kursk time frameframes.  Oh, and N Afrika.  
 

Of course there's always the domestic audience factor to consider also.  We always think foreign policy moves are actually about foreign policy.  Sometimes it's for domestic consumption.  Putin could do this because it makes him look tough and nationalistic to his own people, upholds russian pride, etc.  He could do it because Russian people think they are being disrespected and he needs to stand up to the west to keep his tough guy image. 

I am confused as to why pricing is an issue.  If you want the products when first introduced, you pay the opening price.  Same w lots of other games, same w books, same w DVDs & streaming movies.  It's normal.   Then later price might drop, or product bundled w other stuff.   
The games are expensive because are a specialty product, lovingly hand crafted by a small group of organic sustainably sourced artisans holed up.... well, somewhere.  and last time my son bought Call of Duty it was $60 (bought w my money).   These games are not commodity items.  I can't just get it somewhere else, like buying pepsi over coke because it's on sale.  
Just speaking for myself here, but I am OK w pre-order of new CMRT module.  Where do I sign up?  I look at CM preorder as a kind of crowdfunding.  Others will disagree, and I totally get that, so can choose to not preorder.  

Mountaineering. You won't find terrain like this in Normandy!
 
 

tank  in french color
but American-made
it's tough !!!

The debut of the new Churchill 75NA in a QB was somewhat inauspicious, seeing how the QB force autopicker gave the other side Tigers! Ah well, it was fun anyway.
 

Thanks for that tip GeorgeMC, now subscribe to the miltary history visualized channel.  Good stuff.  
Now, can you get the russians to run away so I don't have to lose half my infantry digging them out of the villages?

oh, there it is, alt-k.  I must've accidently hit this.  Thanks, that fixes it.  Didn't even know it existed

New Vid up!

Don't feel bad - this type of thing most often happens with turning off trees, I've fallen foul of that on a number of occasions - thinking 'why is LOS so cr@p on this map?'  I got three quarters of the way through testing one of the CMFB campaign missions with trees turned off before I realised my mistake.  Luckily I had that facepalm moment before I had given feedback to the author which would have been … the map has serious issues.

those awful soviet SMGs..... and just had artillery strike land shells in two full halftracks.  Ouch.  very lucky strike because it must've been plotted before the smoke blocked all view to the area.  germans have so little infantry in 1944, losing even a couple sections really hurts.

I know about the hotkey panel, somehow I just never noticed that one.  classic, something right in front of me for years and never saw it.
While I've got your attention, if you could ask the russians to not occupy all the buildings in the village objectives it would also be a great help.   😊

There's such a thing?  I don't even know where I would've done that.  where is that?
 

good god, is this really even happening?  this false equivalence bulls-t?  "oh, well the allies did bad things too so everyone is equal." We are not blind or stupid as Aragorn likes to imply.  We KNOW THE ALLIES DID BAD THINGS.  But the allies weren't on a campaign of conquest and murder for all the resources of Eurasia, were they?  And the allies were extremely merciful to their vanquished foes.  The germans planned to impoverish, enslave, banish, or exterminate their vanquished foes.  They did in fact impoverish/enslave/banish/exterminate everyone they conquered.  THAT'S THE DIFFERENCE.  The allied bombing campaigns of german and japanese cities constituted war crimes, there's no way to deny that.  The allies did NOT do this to enslave those countries, they did it because they (wrongly) thought it would end the f___ing war and end the suffering sooner.  Intent matters.
And having said that..... I am currently playing CMRT campaign as the germans.  Because they have nice gear.  and I already did the russian campaign.  

Well, once the rains stop and the ground freezes, things will start rolling again and we'll achieve final victory.
